He makes it a hard farewell:

Wowh, "ein alter Haudegen" who is heading towards the olymp of sport history. Agassi truly belongs to the legendary figures in that sport, and the end of his career will mean that I loose contact to the last player in tennis whose names has some meaning for me, for I already watched his matches since he entered the great arena so many years ago. One generation of player I remember quite well, McEnroe, Connors, Lendl, Wilander, Edberg, Leconte and of course, Becker who already marked the entrance of the following generation to which also Agassi belongs, alongside Sampras. Great player, great fighter. Reminds me of Connors, somehow, "noch so ein zäher Recke!"

When eventually watching Tennis from now on, I will be watching complete strangers who have no meaning for me anymore.
